- Caleb Ekuban is Genoa’s biggest threat, scoring once in four Serie A appearances in 2025/2026.
- Malinovsky is the creative hub of Genoa, providing one assist in his four Serie A outings this season.
Betting Insights
- Napoli are clear favourites to win on Sunday at 1.49, with Genoa at 7.25.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.63 looks a decent bet as Napoli are a structured team and Genoa have not found the net as many times as they would like this term, according to the latest Napoli vs Genoa betting tips.
